Fastest Way To Get Started With Offline Marketing

85 replies
I recently completed a month long program with my coaching clients and the question kept coming up, "What's the fastest way to get started in the offline business?"

If there is enough interest, I would be happy to host a webinar on this subject this week and we can discuss.

Who's game?

    I'm game.

    The fastest way is really a 4 stepper-

    - Select the specific service that will be your lead -in or getting your foot in the door.

    - Select the target market that will be the lowest hanging fruit FOR YOU- how /where do you have influence, access to this group

    - Approach and engage your target audience -by leading with what results you can deliver for them- via the delivery of your specific services

    - Close, deliver phenomenal, measurable results- get their testimonials and referrals

    This has worked well for me with my Custom Fan Page designs services.

    Waiting for the webinar details.

    Stay Sunny,

    I think there really needs to be a separation of effort in our industry. Folks who may be superstars at helping a business rank within local SERPs, may not be the best at the sales game. The reverse may be true as well. If we could organize a movement (see the thread for this proposal here), we could establish a group of 'sales systems' to streamline the sales process AND folks could specialize in what they do best. Marketers could market online and sales persons could sell.

    Although a number of people have looked at this post, only a couple so far have expressed interest in a webinar...

    Once I hear more, I'll set something up.

    I think many in the biz Start FAST.... But then get discouraged and move on. Im not sure if "Fast" should be the goal... I know that the Fastest way to get confidence and experience is by starting with say a family member or friend with a biz and helping them get their phone to ring... Whether its seo, GP listing, FB page, etc. Then, the rest kinda comes together with each client.... But it might be more like a slow and steady learning process.

    Trini,

    It's going to be an informative time, for sure. Anybody who is on the fence about starting the "Offline" business needs to attend as well as those who are checking it out. I am going to talk about some quick ways to get clients and what do do with them once they raise their hands and say, "Tell me more."

    Most of my offline clients give me far more than a typical IM would receive. I'll touch on that, too.

    Good to have you!

    Cheers,

    Millard

    On tonight's webinar, I'll be discussing several things to get your offline consulting business off and running. We'll also discuss the "Checkbook" strategy, the "Competitors Will Make You Money Strategy," and what to do if you know nobody, have no money, and were stuck in some place entirely new...

    Make sure and bring your paper and pens for note taking... you'll be writing fast.

    Yep, tonight at 8 PM, Central, we'll have a good time discussing how to ramp up your offline consultancy business.

    We WILL NOT be talking about the newest shiny thing to bring traffic to a website or how to land at the top of the search engines.

    We WILL be talking about tested methods that work to get prospects to CALL you for help and how to get the check.

    Cheers,

    A replay would be perfect.
    And maybe you guys who attended the webinar could compile an thread, pdf, word or some text file with the notes you took.That would be so helpful too.

    Thanks a lot Millard, i hope i can attend your next one cause i really need this as i told you in my questions before the webinar.

    Hello MWGrubb58.

    Yes, I'm an experienced marketer but I'd like to learn more about your offline techniques.

    Getting started offline??? Professional business cards and flyers are very affordable, effective ways to promote your business. Get good at contacting people/businesses on the phone too.

    To Your Success,

    It would be helpful. Select the specific service that will be your lead -in or getting your foot in the door. Select the target market that will be the lowest hanging fruit FOR YOU- how /where do you have influence, access to this group. These are the starting steps.

    The key is to talk to people... network... set yourself apart from other folks... be friendly... do what others DO NOT do (That is keep persistently plugging away)...
